WELCOME TO NATURE WORKS
At Nature Works, we offer children and young people (CYP) the opportunity to explore the outdoors and be in nature with our tailored programmes aimed at improving both physical and mental well-being.
Nature Works is dedicated to promoting well-being through the accumulating benefits of being in nature. Our unique approach focuses on strengthening relationships between key workers and young people by facilitating engaging outdoor activities. We believe that nature is a powerful enabler and catalyst for personal and social development, and our mission is to create spaces where individuals can connect, learn, and grow. Our experienced team is passionate about fostering an environment that supports communication and ongoing support, making a positive impact on the lives of those we work with.
RECENT WORK
Nature works is a very young enterprise, so examples of work with some early partners have been posted on Instagram. So far the main groups involved have been:
- Boys who attend Boyzone at Teamhub in New Parks, Leicester, where fantastic and wide-ranging support is offered to local families.
- Boys with special educational needs and disabilities at Guilsborough Academy, delivering green-spaces sensory experiences alongside the child's TA.
- Developing experiences with Leics Youth Justice Service, for children with an order from court, designed to address their thoughts and behaviours.
We are working with:

When we take a trauma-informed approach it allows a child to feel and be understood and supported so their needs can be met.
